Max is in a strict 750 - 800 calorie day including milk so figuring out meals is tough!

Here are a few I have tried...tonight Max had 1/2 cup of Giada Whole Wheat pasta with 1/4 of a cup of Light Prego tomato sauce with one cup of mixed steamed veggies tossed all together (we had the fresh frozen mix of asparagus, squash, carrots & cauliflower) for a total of 190 calories. It is a bit higher than normal, but he had eaten less at lunch.

Another meal he likes is some sauteed Extra firm tofu (lightly dusted with olive oil and a dash of salt) with 1 oz. black beans, 1 cup of steamed veggies of their liking for 142 calories. Add some fruit is their daily intake allows. We had a few chunks cut up of Cantaloupe...did you know a whole cup is just 53 calories, so just a few chuncks is nothing!
